Driveclub gets a fabulous free February update tomorrow

To spite the dramatic delay and odd launch issues, Evolution Studios is still very much hard at work on Driveclub. It's still one of the very best driving experiences out there this generation, and it sounds like it's about to get a whole lot better thanks to tomorrow's February update.

More DLC is in the pipeline, but the free update adds quite a lot including a new location with 6 new city tracks, a Hardcore handling option, several new club options, and a whole lot of other tweaks and enhancements. You can even use the awesome Photo mode filters while you race.

See the update notes below (from the official Facebook page) along with some screens and art for the DLC and update.
